Pocketpair, known for its success with Palworld, is expanding its business by creating Pocketpair Publishing to assist indie game developers financially and creatively. Their first collaboration is with Surgent Studios on a standalone horror game, which emphasizes creativity and risk-taking in game design. Despite challenges in securing funding in the gaming industry, this partnership aims to foster innovation and collaboration. The unnamed horror game is slated for release in 2025, marking a significant moment for both companies after Surgent faced funding issues last year.
"Both Surgent and Pocketpair are well-versed in taking risks," Salim said. "We noticed a pattern in the entertainment industry, and Pocketpair has given us the opportunity to make a horror game about it. It will be short and weird, and we think players will be interested in what we have to say."
"Developers lifting each other up, creating together, and pushing the industry forward," Salim added while discussing the partnership between Surgent Studios and Pocketpair.
